scallopini style, minus the flour
- Mix in a small bowl, 2 Tbsp

oil, roughly 3 Tbsp and get the pan to a nice high heat before
applying chicken
- Fry the chicken for about 4-5 minutes or until barely cooked fully

is as fine as the mushrooms and onion

cook down the garlic & onions. Make sure to not over cook the
